Sorry for not giving the exact error. Firstly, when I try to run the XSL 
and received an error.
The error was "The 'meta' start tag on line 11 does not match the end 
tag of 'head'. Line 14, position 3."

So, I try to clean the XHTML using Tidy and receive another error
"Reference to undeclared entity 'nbsp'. Line 293, position 16."
The command used to clean the XHTML .. tidy -m filename.htm

Since I received another error, I changed all   to empty and 
finally I can run my XSL file.

Since I have to run Tidy and remove the  , I'm thinking about to 
change all the XHTML to XML.
Sorry for misunderstanding.

If you have any suggestion on how to minimize the work of cleaning XHTML 
and remove &nsbp, it would be better.
The url for the XHTML is

Thank you for your explanation.
